| Title Synthesis, optical and electrochemical characterization of anthrancene and benzothiadiazole-containing polyfluorene copolymers Article in journal Authors Shimelis Admassie, Zekarias Yacob, Fengling Zhang, Wendimagegn Mammo, Teketel Yohannes, Theodros Solomon Publication Year 2006 Source Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Ethiopia, 2006, (20)2, 309-317 Abstract <p>New solution-processable, anthrancene- and benzothiadiazole-containing polyfluorene copolymers (P1-P3) have been synthesized and characterized. The preparation and characterization of the corresponding blue light-emitting devices are also reported. Polymers P2 and P3 show high photoluminescence efficiency while polymer P2 does not show any significant light emission up to 8.0 V. The results show the need for balance of electron and hole transport in polymer light emitting diodes.</p> |
